Is there any way to prevent automatic 2.5 firmware upgrade over the air while still online ? I installed a Unicode hack on my 2.3.3 firmware and I hate to lose this capability as I understand the hack no longer works under 2.5. Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure. But as far as I know, your hack will prevent Kindle from updating. It will refuse the "wrong" configuration.

If it downloads and fails to install: You should try to secure the file. Hundreds of users would be happy to get the file.

A few weeks ago the kindle tried to update via whispernet with the 2.3.4 file but I had the hacks on and it was downloaded, but the update didnt work. Had I known about Johhny's idea of retrieving it later I could have upgraded.

Dont worry, once the bin is around the the new hacks will be updated very quickly. Not by me though! I just carry out other's instructions on how to do it.
